More Tasty Morsels to Have With Drinks - Capsicum Confetti Blinis

 It is so good to serve tasty food when you invite people over for drinks

One of my favourites is Blinis With Cream Cheese and Smoked Salmon 

Bu there are times when you have a friend who can't eat Salmon or any fish at all, so I devised this little topping and it is not only pretty but also very tasty

I bought the Blinis, I used to make them but now you can buy them and keep them in the freezer, all ready when you invite people over for Drinks or Morning Tea 

You will need

Packet of Blinis,

Cream cheese
2 tablespoons Mayo
Zest of 1 lemon
Green, pepper
Red pepper
Yellow pepper
Chives
Sea Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper

Finally chop the pepper and chives and zest the lemon 
Season with the salt and pepper
Mix together 
Blend the cream cheese and mayo together
Defrost your Blinis and place on a plate
Spread the Cream cheese and Mayo over each Blini
and Sprinkle the Pepper mix over the top 
Yum


I was helping my neighbour prepare these tasty morsels for Drinks here at The Village last night
She suggested that maybe to make eating then easier we mixed the peppers in with the cream cheese mix


Voila... what a good idea, not quite as pretty but equally as tasty, I have whipped up a few to take to my friends place for drinks tonight


Then I had my granddaughters over for Morning tea, They brought Cup Cakes,
For my contribution
I made a sweet version of the Blini dish

You need 
Cream Cheese
Craisins 
Freeze dried Raspberries

I hauled out the Blinis from the freezer,

Then spread them with the Cream Cheese,
Pop on a few Craisins
Crumble the Freeze Dried Raspberries over the Blinis and Voila
Morning Tea
